The Lord appeared to Issac at Beersheba and said,

"I am the God of your father Abraham.

Do not be afraid; I am with you.

I will bless you and give you many descendants because of my promise to my servant Abraham."

Issac built an altar there and worshipped the  LORD.

Build an altar in your heart to the LORD and worship Him.

The light of my glory will shine on you,

Your days of grief will come to an end.
